Affleck was quite good in "Hollywoodland" as well as "Changing Lanes." He can act, though I'll concede he hasn't always made the best choices in parts.

Actually
I still want an explanation for what he was doing in that Star Trek reboot.

Yes, sure, Kubrick could have done something interesting with "Network." Ruined it.

What the Senator said.

Oh please, I laughed out loud a half dozen times during this episode. Either stop watching the fucking show or finally get that long-postponed enema you all desperately need.

Rob Reiner on The Partridge Family
I wish he'd actually responded to that question with some kind of interesting memory. He played Snake, an edgy but kindhearted high school biker type who falls for Laurie Partridge (Susan Dey). He appeared to two different episodes. It's pretty much the first thing I remember seeing…

Margulies alone elevates this to an A episode. The prep interview with Eli and then her final scene were dramatic gold. Some of you fuckers complain about her reserve, but she knows what she's doing on this show.

Ross' lesbian ex wife and her partner, plus his son Ben were almost new regulars at some point, but not quite. Also, Ross' British girlfriend and eventual bride, Emily, looked like she was going to be around longer than an arc, but no. And Rachel's sister, played by Christina Applegate, would have been a welcome…

He's really only good when he cries. I always get a laugh out of that.

I don't know… monkeys always seem to make things better.

A couple of things… the ratings have dropped a bit this year and the 18-49 viewers dipped as well. CBS is notorious for canceling shows that either win their time slots or perform well just because they have some pilot they're excited about in the wings.

Hey Todd:

"Orphan" was not dreck. You're thinking of every remake or reimagining of ever horror film ever made in the '70s or '80s.

It still surprises me this show exists on CBS. With a few tweaks, it would be FX or even TNT series.

I'd pretty much watch her in anything. But shouldn't they make it "Ms. Marple?"

The finale would be more interesting to me if it were going to be Richard vs. Antonia. I don't want Mike to walk away with $200,000 under any circumstances. But I could live with an Antonia win over Richard, especially since Richard is doing well in Atlanta with his restaurant and further success for him is fairly…

Bourdain was eaten by a shark, who subsequently barfed him up and then made a snarky, condescending comment about what a bad taste the chef left on his palate.

Man, this site is like a refugee camp for snotty hipster douchebag wannabe music critics.

Two things: It makes me sad that this guy is a member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences. Although, I now have a better understanding of how "Crash" was named Best picture. And one of his stunts for "Cannonball Run" left a 24 year old stuntwoman a quadriplegic for life. I guess he couldn't have been…

I live in Atlanta. Paula Deen is simultaneously worshiped and the butt of many jokes. Her sons inspire homoerotic fantasies in every gay man I know. At least once a month, her freakishly airbrushed face appears on the cover of some magazine I can't avoid while standing in the grocery store check out line. People here…
